The Story
This richly aromatic wine dances with aromas of black currant, cherry, and plums. It is delicately highlighted with notes of caramel, cocoa power and hints of sage and vanilla. Sumptuous and silky. Rich with cherry fruit at the palate entry followed by a sultry, silky mid-palate. The acidity is bright and the finish is long and smooth.
James Suckling
So well-balanced, elegant and drinkable. This full-bodied red is moderately tannic, showing deep flavors of raspberries, black cherries, dark chocolate and baking spices. While velvety and approachable, it also delivers great complexity and length. Drink now or hold.
94 Points - Wine Spectator
Keenly structured yet polished, with handsome flavors of black cherry and red currant accented by tomato leaf and bittersweet chocolate as this gathers richness toward fine-grained tannins. Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc.
